Thank you very much! I am currently on a business trip. I will post a new challenge tomorrow.
Is the process completly in midjourney or do you use multiple platforms for the tasks?
I think it should not be necessary for the creator of the challenges to search trough the past challenges. As you have written, even if the challenges are similar you will always see something new and creative.
I prefer mass transit, but with style :-).

In the heart of a sprawling, verdant jungle, a colossal Tyrannosaurus rex strides gracefully through the dense foliage. This isn’t an ordinary dinosaur; its massive form serves as the foundation for an elaborate medieval city built upon its back. The T-Rex’s scales shimmer with deep greens and earthy browns, blending seamlessly with the surrounding jungle and providing a natural camouflage for the city it carries.
The city itself is a marvel of ancient engineering and artistry. Stone and timber structures rise along the dinosaur’s spine, meticulously crafted to fit the contours of its body. At the highest point, near the T-Rex’s shoulders, stands a grand castle with soaring towers and fluttering pennants bearing the city’s crest. The castle’s stone walls are adorned with intricate carvings depicting heroic tales and legendary creatures.
Winding down the creature’s back, a network of cobblestone streets and wooden bridges connects various districts of the city. Elegant archways and balconies overlook the jungle canopy, offering breathtaking views of the endless sea of green. Houses with thatched roofs and colorful stained-glass windows cluster together, their chimneys puffing gentle wisps of smoke that blend with the mist of the jungle.
Suspended gardens hang from the sides of the city, overflowing with exotic plants and vibrant flowers that attract hummingbirds and butterflies. Water from a crystal-clear spring near the T-Rex’s neck cascades down in a series of waterfalls, ingeniously harnessed to power water mills and fountains throughout the city.
The inhabitants, dressed in medieval attire, bustle about the streets. Merchants display an array of goods in the bustling marketplace—spices, textiles, and handcrafted wares—while musicians play lutes and flutes, filling the air with melodic tunes. Knights clad in gleaming armor patrol the ramparts, ever vigilant, while scholars and artisans engage in animated discussions in open courtyards.
Lanterns hang from ornate iron posts, their golden glow beginning to flicker as dusk approaches. The T-Rex’s gentle movements are accommodated by the city’s flexible design; suspension bridges sway slightly with each step, and buildings are reinforced to withstand the motion. Vines and mosses from the jungle have been artfully incorporated into the architecture, symbolizing a harmonious coexistence with nature.
Below, the jungle teems with life. Ancient trees with sprawling roots and thick canopies are home to a multitude of creatures—exotic birds with iridescent feathers, chattering monkeys swinging from vines, and elusive big cats prowling the shadows. The air is rich with the scents of damp earth and fragrant blossoms, and the sounds of wildlife create a symphony that underscores the city’s own lively hum.
Above, the sky transitions into a tapestry of warm oranges and purples as the sun sets, casting a magical glow over the entire scene. The medieval city on the back of the gigantic Tyrannosaurus rex stands as a testament to ingenuity and adaptation, a thriving haven where civilization and the primal world are intertwined in breathtaking detail.
I liked it because of the ambivalence.
Death is not looking at the child, He stares at the angel of life as if he is waiting.
You could interpret it this way:
The angel of Life is protecting the child or, in a bigger view, every person from death. If the angel of life abandons us, we enter the domain of death.
I was not trying to go towards a biblical intepretation and i do not see death as evil. Maybe the choice of an angel for “life” was not the best choice.
Edit after a night of Sleep: It is interesting how hard wired religious themes are in ones subconcious. I wonder how i would have depicted life and death with another cultural background.
A baby dressed in a nightgown lays in the center of the image in a crib. The baby is sleeping On the left side stands death incarnate, a skeleton in a black robe holding a scythe. On the right side of the picture stands a beautiful female angel representing life incarnate. She makes a praying gesture. she has a glowing halo around her head. the room is a beautiful kids room.
The penguin slides up and hits back with some smooth lines:
"Hold up, big bear, you’re lookin’ pretty cold, All that muscle, but your moves are old. I may be snack-sized, but I got the speed, While you trudge on slow, yeah, I’m built for speed.
South Pole rockin’, with my squad in black-tie, We got style and chill, I don’t even gotta try. Sure, you’re big, got the teeth and the claws, But I slide on ice like I’m breakin’ laws.
You’re the king of frost, but I’m the duke of dive, Graceful underwater, yeah, I thrive. I got the waddle, got the groove, got the scene, While you’re out there solo, tryna act mean.
Snack-sized? Yeah, but I got the flavor, A penguin’s chill vibe, something to savor. So back up, Ice King, take a bow and freeze, 'Cause this bird’s got heat—you’re out in the breeze!"
I now have 52 more disturbing images in my mind which will haunt me tonight in my dreams. I did not expect such good results with lovecraftian themes with this model.
In the rotting corridors of the asylum, the Plague of the Elder Gods had taken root. Writhing in agony, the last survivor’s body bloated with eldritch sickness. Behind him, a monstrous deity advanced, its tendrils feeding on his misery. Humanity was no more, replaced by creeping madness and disease.
Made with Comfyui an the new Flux Model. I´ve learned that the Flux Model is very capable to create NSFL images without any loras. This one seeems to be tame enough to post here.
A derelict hospital floor. A skinny man, age 18, is sitting on the floor, leaning on the wall. He wears a dirty hospital gown. He is scared and is screaming in pain. He is infected by an lovecraftian parasite. Green slimy tentacles are growing in his skin. His belly is swollen and bulging extremly out out. Black goo tears are running from his eyes. A formless slime and tentacle creature is crawling towards the boy in the background
Fabulous Werewolf
Model: Flux Dev
The werewolf is walking on a catwalk of a fashion show. The aatendees are all sheep.
The werewolf, in its transformed form, is a towering, muscular creature that blends human and wolf-like characteristics. Here is a detailed physical description of the werewolf in its transformed state:
Size & Build: The werewolf stands anywhere from 6 to 9 feet tall, often hunched with a broad, muscular build. Its body is thick with muscle, making it appear powerful and imposing. The limbs are long and sinewy, with exaggerated muscles, suggesting immense strength and agility.
clothing: Picture a dazzling gown without a trace of dark green or black, embracing only the brightest and most radiant shades of the rainbow. The bodice glows with a mix of vivid reds, oranges, and yellows, each section shimmering with iridescent sequins that catch every glint of light. The neckline is a playful off-the-shoulder design, adorned with tiny gemstones in fiery pink and golden tones, creating a delicate, glimmering frame around the face.
From the waist down, the skirt cascades in layers of sheer, glittering tulle, each tier a different burst of vibrant colors—starting with sunny yellow at the top, flowing into electric pinks, bold purples, and soft sky blues. Every layer is edged with sparkling rhinestones, refracting light like a prism. The dress sways gracefully with movement, creating a mesmerizing wave of colors.
The back of the dress features a unique design: an open, plunging cut framed with rainbow-colored gems that form delicate floral patterns. A playful satin bow, in a radiant lilac, cinches the waist before the skirt flows down into a dramatic, sweeping train. The train itself is a light, translucent fabric that glitters with multi-colored sparkles, ensuring that the gown leaves a trail of brilliance behind.
Without any dark tones, the dress radiates pure joy and extravagance, perfect for a spectacular entrance where light and color steal the show.
Fur: The body is covered in a dense, coarse layer of fur, typically dark in color—shades of black, grey, or brown are most common. The fur covers the entirety of the creature, from its head down to its feet, though sometimes the chest and abdomen might reveal more muscular definition through shorter or patchy fur.
Head: The werewolf’s head resembles that of a wolf but is often larger and more exaggerated. The face has a long, lupine snout filled with sharp, jagged teeth, often bared in a menacing snarl. Its eyes glow ominously, typically in shades of red, yellow, or silver, and are deeply set within a heavy brow. The ears are pointed, sitting high on the head and twitching to detect sound.
Mouth & Teeth: The werewolf's mouth is full of sharp, elongated fangs designed for ripping and tearing flesh. The jaw is powerful, capable of delivering a deadly bite.
Hands & Claws: The hands of the werewolf are a hybrid between human and wolf, with long, clawed fingers. Each finger is tipped with razor-sharp claws, capable of slicing through flesh and bone. The hands are large, with thick, sinewy fingers that add to the werewolf's overall brute strength.
Legs & Feet: The legs are muscular and digitigrade, resembling the hind legs of a wolf, but they allow the werewolf to walk both upright on two legs or run on all fours. The feet are large, with claws similar to its hands, and are built for speed and agility, capable of great leaps and sprints.
Tail: Depending on the depiction, the werewolf may have a bushy, wolf-like tail that helps with balance when moving on all fours.
Overall Movement: The werewolf moves with a predatory grace, able to switch between running on two legs or all fours. Its movements are fluid, quick, and powerful, allowing it to navigate both dense forests and open terrain with ease.
This hybrid creature is both terrifying and majestic, a perfect blend of human and wolf attributes, designed for hunting, combat, and survival in the wild.

Intresting. Flux Dev gives me Manga girls with this prompt. I wonder if it falls back to some standard if you use random strings.
Yeah, but it was a bit confusing how to use it at the beginning. Especially the selection of the style presets. But it works very well. Especially the Lora integration (The Lego unicorn or the sign for example). Here is a screenshot of the interface:
I remembered an article about False Vacuum (Wikipedia) when i thought about this challenge. We see the remains of an alternate reality, condensed to this little “Stone” by the pressure of our reality.
Made with comfyui, using outpainting. The workflow should be embedded in this picture (Catbox).
Prompt:
Model
The generation Process of the Base Image needs only 6 Steps at a CFG of 3 Thanks to the turbo Model.
The Outpainting needs 60 Steps and a CFG of 8.
It has a pinball machine. Totally legit !
